Another One Bites the Dust...

I found another example of a Powers
cover that no longer exists...

As I mentioned in an earlier post, Powers was notorious for cutting up older paintings to create new ones.  Having looked at many examples, I begin to notice a pattern -- if a cover worked well on its own as a "painting" he would apparently keep it intact and try to sell it.  But if an illustration was too obviously composed as a cover illustration (i.e. all the interest is in the bottom third, obvious graphic elements to support text, etc.), it became fodder for future collage pieces.

Thus, poor "Beyond Infinity" got the axe (literally).
